Assistant Manager Kim Hates Idols - Chapter 149



Only Noblemtl

| Episode 149. Establishing measures to prevent recurrence (2)

‘What do you usually do in your free time, sir?’

‘I closed the company doors and left work yesterday too.’

‘Ahhh… … .’

12 years of studying until high school. Then to the military and Hanpyeong Industries.

I didn’t have any free time for most of my life. The only hobby I had was playing bass a little bit in college.

I was given a break with nothing to do, nothing I could do, and no base. I was in an empty room that wasn’t even my home, and I couldn’t even leave.

‘I’m bored.’

Resting? That’s great.

There is no office worker who doesn’t like lying in bed. I also lay in bed all day yesterday.

But there is something called crowd psychology in this world.

There are six people living in one room, and five of them are newbies who go to practice in the morning and come back at night. Do you think you would feel comfortable if you were the only one doing nothing?

Because of that, I felt like I was sitting on a bed of thorns. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was wasting my life alone.

When I habitually turn on my laptop because I want to do something… … .

『spArk’s Treasure House

Please enter your password.』

… … All that appeared was a locking phrase that made people mad. By the way, I tried to break through it but failed.

‘Should I monitor the finals?’

Because I ended up lying down after the show, I didn’t get to see how the Spark stage was broadcast.

When I logged into YouTube with my phone, which I hadn’t returned yet, full version videos of each group’s performances came up one after another.

‘hmm?’

Something was strange.

I checked the six most recent videos again, and flipped through the number of views and the titles of the videos.

≫ Parte – 『Crown』 │ 790,000

Log – 『Final』 │ 630,000

Spark – 『City Song』 │ 1.34 million

All Over – 『Utopia』 │ 580,000

Sticky – 『Dreaming』 │ 420,000

Berion – 『Goal』 │ 270,000

Aren’t Sparkman’s views too flashy?

The thumbnail already had a gold ribbon attached to it for achieving 1 million views. This was about 1.7 times more than the number of views of Parte, which took first place.

Below, there was a series of videos with awkward titles like ‘Idol who collapsed on live broadcast’ and ‘Male idol who showed fighting spirit despite injury’.

‘If the video gets this popular, it means there was a reaction to something.’

Let’s put aside watching the stage footage for a moment and head to the community, where we can clearly see traces of the fire that had been burning.

≫ Let’s talk about our royal finalsㅎㅎ

.

.

.

And the long-awaited spark ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

My mouth is wide open. Is it because the other teams grit their teeth and bring such fierce competition in the finals? It feels like they really stood out.

And now I know why this place turns into a sea of ​​fire every time a splash comes out.

A visual group with confidence, reallyㅋㅋㅋ Even when they wear hanbok, their shoulders look like the Manchurian plains

Every time Lee Cheong-hyeon appears, I can’t breathe, and when Choi Je-ho appears, my heart starts racing → I repeat this endlessly.

It was good that they spent a lot of money on the last competition and this stage too. It was a feast for the eyesㅎㅎ Now I know why fans are always disappointed with their agencyㅋㅋㅋㅋ큐ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

I think it was a legend that reeked of capital while receiving a lot of support since it was large.

.

.

.

└ Who wrote my diary here?

└ I can’t breathe whenever Lee Cheong-hyun appears >> I knew thisㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ But he’s so handsome, it’s thrilling, being handsome is the best

└ The group with the most anticipated future as adults ranked 1st

└ I know what it feels like, it’s not like they’re dancing stiff choreography, it’s really soft… … but the angles are sharp so it’s really refreshing

└ This is it

≫ Is it okay for there to be six arch-rivals in the North?

Security is good

└ I was wondering what you were talking aboutㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

└ It seems like we can gather the Grand Dukes and play Ruby Cube too

└ No, it’s not possible. Ruby Cube is for 4 people, so the two archers have to stand at the back.

└ Where did the grand duke who used to attract attention in the social circle go? He can’t even play games and has lost all his form.

└ Ah pleaseㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

≫ Summary of the Spark stage called Awangsil Compressed Edition (Beware of overt sales pitch)

The over-immersive narrative that made me admit that I was a sparkler when I was going through a period of indecision since the first episode of Awangsil… … . I uploaded it because I liked it so much! Let’s die together

(Excluding position contests as they seem to be an exception)

1. Self-PR Stage (Flowering)

Showing the founding of Joseon by comparing it to the concept of idol debut

Yiwol said that when planning, he focused on giving the feeling of taking off from zero, as if heading to bare ground.

ex. Original stage: Start with the sound of a door opening + Lee Cheong-hyeon kneeling → Add an opening sequence and start with choreography of everyone waking up from sleep

I was thinking about how to show the process of establishing a country and setting the framework, and since the members’ debut process seemed similar, I put all of this in. (So, Jeho, you’re a late bloomer? If you feel wronged, explain it during the live.)

They said that they changed the lyrics a lot to match the keyword of beginning (In the long night darkness → Until the long dawn passes / Sent to the night sky → Dying the sky)

2. Change the song (Desire)

The original concept was a war against sacred relics, but I wondered why Spark came out as a sports story.

It is said that only the keywords of competition were taken from the fight to possess the original song’s sacred relics, the factional fights in Joseon history, and the sexual fights between idols.

Personally, I was impressed by the fact that they decided on a sport concept to make the competition element not stressful for the viewers but just enjoyable.

↑↑ As an extension of this, it was said that the final reward was to be seen as ‘honor’ rather than material things like trophies or medals.

3. Cover song (Starlight)

It is a stage that uses cultural heritage such as science and art as its subject matter.

The concept is that of an astronomer who looks up at the sky every day, yearning for a shining being. This is the image Spark pursues.

I hope that one day, I will find the light, just like Lee Cheong-hyeon did when he realized something.

You want to be a star so you look at the stars every night and put star glitter on your face. You are already a star. If you don’t believe me, look in the mirror.

+ It’s the only one among the royal stages that had classical sampling, and they said they wanted to indirectly show the cultural exchange of the Joseon Dynasty. Our Lee Wol definitely has a concept transformation.

I was told later that the lighting effects on stage were also from the Heavenly Train.

The moment Lee Cheong-hyeon opens the light bulb (approaches the essence of knowledge), stars pour down (achieves enlightenment), and a map of the celestial train appears (shows the universe)… … How can you not love this story ㅠㅠㅠ

Above all, the stage is so pretty… … This is my favorite stage… … I created a new Spark fan account after seeing this. The kids’ faces are legends at the time, so if there’s anyone who hasn’t seen it yet, definitely watch it

4. Final Competition (City Price)

The stage that showed why Spark covered idols and Joseon history at the same time = Because the program is ‘Idol Dynasty Chronicles’

He said that he wrote the narration that appears at the very beginning thinking it was an introduction to the program called Awangsil.

The concept is that they are the recorders who write the stage that will be included in the program.

At the end, the members become part of the letters, which signifies them as the recorders, and at the same time, they want to remain as a record for someone.

It was a stage planned from the moment I decided to participate in the royal family, so it was the one I worked on the longest and revised the most.

Review Summary: Spark, a genius idol who caught two rabbits at once, both idol and royal history, worked very hard, and Kim Yi-wol has been producing for his entire life.

└ 1 is a bit… … I think it fits too well

└ You said you were focusing on ‘idols’ too. Is the comment above hard to read????

└ It’s a proper mix of both. If they had only focused on the Annals of the Dynasty, wouldn’t they have only worn hanbok throughout the royal family?

└ I think it was a good choice. It doesn’t seem too concept-oriented, but it also captures the narrative.

└ That’s right, I think they planned well to reveal it at the end and give a twist

└ The fact that they planned this in one survival program is fucking ridiculous. All the agencies that come up with a worldview explain it while releasing 3 albums each, but they all break it in two months.

≫ The reason why Spark is the real number 1

: The answer is obvious just by looking at the number of views

└ It is an undeniable difference, but only ‘that’ group is gritting their teeth and pretending not to know

└ Ignorance voting is ugly… … If I were you, I would be embarrassed to get first place like that

└ Why on earth should a fan who pays their own money have to hear this? If someone saw this, they would think the votes were manipulated… … You can tell that it’s Sparkle disease

└ He’s not a sparkler, he’s a nomad and he got stabbed aloneㅋㅋㅋㅋ Yeah, I get it, your parterre that urges fans to vote is the best

└ ???: I think I’ll be upset if I don’t get first place ㅠㅠ

└ Did he really do that? The stone himself?

└ If you type ㅍㄹㅌ ㅁㅇ Bubble Pop, it will come out. The specialty is even more amazing.

‘How many of these are there?’

Although it is common for reviews to be posted after a program ends, it is not common for a page to be filled with the stories of a specific group.

But now, wherever I go, I see talk of Spark. And it’s all praise.

And that’s how it came to be… … .

≫ The male idol who fainted on live broadcast today

He was a Spark member named Lee Wol, but he collapsed right after the final stage at Awangsil.

There was an article about this a while ago, and people are saying that it seems to be an aftereffect

(Photo taken down)

Most people responded that they didn’t know because he looked fine on stage.

└ Friend, please take down the photo… … It might be something the person involved doesn’t want to see

└ I heard that you got hit in the head, but I wondered how you got out. Looks like you really got out by gritting your teeth.

└ It’s true that I clenched my teeth and came out, as you can see from the stage that I did everything

≫ I knew that you were serious about idols, but

I didn’t want to know that you were this sincere

I thought I would be resting and eating warm hospital food, but I doubted my eyes.

└ Wow, even the fans didn’t know

└ You couldn’t even imagine the fandom? I dropped my spoon while watching it while eating. This guy’s pre-existing condition was 8 weeks old.

└ Shouldn’t you be resting at that point…? What are the fans saying???

└ The sparklers were waiting in front of the agency with spears, but the members decided to make a deal voluntarily, so they quietly moved on.

└ If Yuei had any thoughts, he wouldn’t have forced the child out now… … How long has it been since he was beaten like a dog?

└ But maybe because they got hit, they quickly uploaded an apology and official statement this time

≫ I thought everything was fine because the stage was going so well, but I was surprised when the child suddenly disappeared from the screen.

└ Originally, he said he didn’t plan on making her dance, but he said he wanted to start with dancing, so he’s hitting his forehead X. Kim Yi-wol, you’re sick.

└ It hurts even more when you come out with your wound covered with a headband, ㅅㅂ

└ Now, the Emperor must be imprisoned against his will… … It’s all Kim Yi-wol’s fault. Endure it, Kim Yi-wol. This is a special welfare that you brought upon yourself.

… … I think it’s my influence. I can’t help but sigh.

In the meantime, I went to the fan cafe to see what UA and the members were talking about.

≫ From. Seongbin

Sparkler, you’ve all been worried, right?

Brother Lee Wol just got back to his accommodations.

It’s not that there’s an injury or a problem, but it’s likely that it happened because of the sudden increase in activity, so don’t worry too much.

Thank you for cheering me on and worrying about me until late at night.

I love you always! ♥

└ Cheong-Hyeon @Seong-Bin That hyung needs to be scolded a bit. As the representative, hyung, say something.

└ Seongbin @How could you do that to Cheonghyun hyung^^;;;;;

└ Cheong-Hyeon @Seong-Bin hyung is the leader!

≫ From. Joo Woo

Thank you for supporting me until the end.

I was taken aback by the unexpected result, but I’m really happy.

I’m planning to make a celebration for all six of us together soon. Once Lee Wol-hyung gets better!

Until then, Sparkler, don’t get sick and take care of your health. Health comes first.

≫ From. Kiyeon

Second place… … Thank you. It was all thanks to Sparkler that I was able to enjoy myself for such a long time without getting tired. Thank you. Really.

Lee Wol-hyung suffered the most, but he’s so sleepy right now that he’s out of his mind. (+Jeho-hyung also passed out after moving Lee Wol-hyung.)

If you wake up later, Sparkler will scold you a lot. You won’t listen to us, so we’ll die.

Please also watch the behind-the-scenes video of Awangsil that will be uploaded tomorrow. Sleep well.

└ Title: What kind of discharge is this?

└ Kiyeon @Jeho Good night, hyung

I had a lot to say. I won’t say anything because it must have been an attempt to reassure the fans, but I couldn’t help but feel dizzy.

There was even a hot post titled ‘Collection of Quotes from Professional Idol Kim Yi-wol’. It seemed that the aftermath of the A-Wang Dynasty had an impact even in severe areas.

I’m scared. I can’t even guess what’s written in that post.

However, idols cannot ignore public opinion.

I carefully touched the post that was flooded with comments.
